Why this helps
Scanned research can be difficult to skim when search and text selection do not work.
- Makes scanned research pages easier to search.
- Reduces the friction of revisiting a specific passage.
- Creates extracted text as a useful review aid.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Orbit and Ocrspace to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to extract text from scanned research PDFs supplied by Orbit.
- 3Use one plain-language instruction to send each PDF to Ocrspace and return its extracted text.
- 4Select an incoming webhook trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real scanned research PDF.
Questions about this workflow
Does OCR summarize the research?
No. This workflow extracts text. Summarization would require a separate instruction or action.
Will figures and charts become text?
OCR may recognize visible labels, but check the PDF for visual material and layout.
